Little Dom's Monday night is not currently a permanent cioppino night. The dated supper menu for September 7, 2026 offered melon and radicchio with anchovy dressing, shaved tri-tip with French fries and chimichurri, and cheesecake with salted caramel sauce. That is the useful reality: a rotating Italian-American set menu alongside a regular dinner menu of spaghetti and meatballs, chicken Parmesan, handmade pastas and wood-oven pizzas. The restaurant has been operating in Los Feliz since January 2008, in a 1924 corner building at Hillhurst and Avocado Avenues. Go for the changing supper if it appeals, but understand the house before setting out.
Monday night has a changing supper rather than a fixed cioppino dish, so the menu can matter more than the map pin. Ask Karpo what is on the current Little Dom's supper menu and when to book it right now.
Monday Supper is a rotating plate, not a fixed cioppino ritual
Little Dom's Monday Night Supper is a dated offering that changes, rather than a dish permanently attached to the night. The menu dated September 7, 2026 ran from melon and radicchio with anchovy dressing to shaved tri-tip with French fries and chimichurri, followed by cheesecake with salted caramel sauce. It was listed at $25, making the format distinct from the regular dinner menu. A cioppino special should not be assumed from the name of the evening.
The optional pairing is as straightforward as the supper itself: $25 for house wine or $5 for house beer. That gives Monday a set-menu logic without turning it into a formal tasting menu. Check the dated offering before leaving, particularly if the changing dish is the reason for going. The dependable alternative is the standard dinner menu, available Sunday through Thursday from 5:00 to 10:00 p.m.
The red-sauce standards remain the dependable centre
Little Dom's describes its food as fresh Italian-American cooking, and the current menu makes that framing plain. Spaghetti and meatballs is $24, chicken Parmesan is $26, Margherita pizza is $16, and rice balls are $14. The restaurant also names handmade pastas, wood-oven pizzas, rice balls and meatball dishes among its core offerings. It is a menu built around recognisable forms rather than a single Monday speciality.
There are smaller ways into the same style. Ricotta cavatelli with vodka sauce is $21, while three housemade meatballs are $15. Those prices make it possible to keep an order focused or add a familiar extra without committing to a large spread. A first visit can therefore sit between the changing Monday supper and the regular standards, depending on whether the dated menu or the red-sauce staples are doing the work.
A 1924 corner building gives the room its shape
Little Dom's occupies a two-story sandstone-brick commercial-vernacular building constructed in 1924 at the corner of Hillhurst and Avocado Avenues. The location is part of the restaurant's practical identity: it is a proper corner address rather than a room hidden inside a larger complex. Outdoor seating is available, giving the same Hillhurst setting a second format when the indoor room is not the preferred choice.
Inside, owner Warner Ebbink designed the room around a vintage wooden bar from Pennsylvania, salvaged leaded-glass windows, and leather and marble finishes. There is also an upstairs dining room with a retro-inspired design. These are useful orientation points on arrival: the bar is not merely a service counter, and the two-storey layout separates the restaurant into recognisable areas rather than one undifferentiated dining room.
Daytime and brunch operate on different rules
The weekday daytime service is counter service, but it uses the full restaurant menu and bar. It runs Monday through Friday from 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. That distinction matters for anyone arriving expecting either a limited daytime menu or ordinary table service. The full offering is available, but the format is counter-led during those hours.
Weekend brunch reverses the arrangement. Saturday and Sunday service runs from 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m., is full service, and is walk-ins only. There is no brunch reservation strategy to arrange in advance. Dinner is the service where planning counts: it runs Sunday through Thursday from 5:00 to 10:00 p.m. and Friday and Saturday from 5:00 p.m. to midnight.
The bar booths are the strategic seats
The bar booths have been identified as the preferred seats in the room. They are curved booths set alongside a mirrored bar with round Cinzano tables, which makes them a more specific choice than simply asking for a table near the drinks. A request can be made, but a particular table is not guaranteed. The useful move is to mention the bar booths when booking rather than treating them as an automatic allocation.
The busiest nightly period has typically been 6:30 to 9:00 p.m. That is the window to avoid if a quieter meal matters. Dinner reservations are handled through Resy and are recommended for both Sunday-Thursday and Friday-Saturday service. A reservation also removes the need to rely on a favourable walk-in moment, especially on a Friday or Saturday when dinner continues until midnight.
Hillhurst is the anchor for arriving without guesswork
The address is 2128 Hillhurst Avenue, Los Angeles, CA 90027, in Los Feliz, at the Hillhurst and Avocado Avenues corner. That gives the restaurant a clear street-level reference for arrival and explains why the building's corner profile matters. If sitting outside is preferable, outdoor seating is part of the restaurant's available setup rather than a separate destination.
The LADOT DASH Observatory/Los Feliz route serves the Los Feliz/Hillhurst stop near the restaurant's Hillhurst Avenue location. For dinner, the best sequence is simple: check the current Monday menu if supper is the purpose, reserve through Resy for the evening service, and avoid the 6:30-9:00 p.m. rush if the bar booths or a calmer meal matter. The practical details are tied to the service format, not just the address.

Ask Karpo first
Little Dom's is hard to use from a map pin alone because weekday counter service, weekend walk-in brunch, dinner reservations and the rotating Monday Night Supper all follow different rules. Ask Karpo for the current Monday menu, the best arrival window, the likelihood of getting a bar booth, and what else near Hillhurst and Avocado is worth the walk.
